Introduction.

7. 8
● The Anypoint Connector for Salesforce Composite provides a way to integrate with Salesforce
Composite API which enables MULE to use a single API call to access several individual
Salesforce services .
● The connector exposes convenient methods for preparing sub-requests, execute them in one
batch and parse the results.
● The response bodies and HTTP status of the requests are returned in a single response body.
The entire series of requests counts as a single call toward your API limits.
● The requests in a composite call are called subrequests.
● All subrequests are executed in the context of the same user.
Composite connector.

8. 9
● An sObject tree is a collection of nested, parent-child records with a single root record.
● Up to a total of 200 records across all trees
● hasErrors field : True/False indicate success/failure in response .
sObject Tree.

9. 10
● An sObject collection execute actions on multiple records aka Objects in one request.
● Max 200 objects can processed in one go .
● allOrNone field : true/false option to specify a rollback behavior in the case of partial failure.
sObject Collection.

10. 11
● Batch allows up to 25 separate unrelated actions to be executed in a single call.
● Each executes independently and information is not shared between the calls.
● haltOnError field : true/false option to specify if batch should stop processing in the case of sub-
request failed . Default is false .
Batch.

11. 12
● Output of one request can be used as the input to a subsequent request .
● Sequentially execute a series of actions in a single call .
● Max 25 Objects allows in single request .
● allOrNone field : true/false option to specify a rollback behavior in the case of partial failure.
Composite.

12. 13
● Anypoint version 6.3.0
● Mule Runtime version: 3.9.1
● In the mule palette , type Salesforce composite
Composite Set Up .

13. 14
● Username:Username used to initialize the session
● Password:Password used to authenticate the user
● Consumer Key:Consumer key for Salesforce connected app.
● Consumer Secret:Your application’s client secret (consumer secret in Remote Access Detail).

Consider a scenario ,we need to update the Account and contact, where Contact has the relationship
with Account and it only can be updated using Account ID .

Consider same scenario without using composite .
The flow will look like something like this

19. 20
● Reducing Processing time and no of API call .
● In the above example we have seen that the interaction is happening within 1 call so the round trip
execution time much shorter in compare to individual call.
● Offers the ability to create a collection of nested parent-child records.
● Enables a user to execute dependent requests in a single API call. For example, use the connector to
invoke a single composite resource that creates an account and retrieves its information to use it to
create a contact.

20. Quiz time!

21. How does the quiz work?
1. Organizers show the question.
2. Organizers read the question out loud.
3. Organizers will write in the chat the following message: “Answers from question n start
here” after reading the question.
4. Only answers that appear after this message will be taken into account.
5. A final raffle, with the people that answered the quiz correctly, will take place after the quiz,
where the 3 lucky winners will receive a training or certification voucher.
6. The 3 winners will send their email in the chat so we can contact them for further steps.

22. Rules:
1. First person to give the correct answer in the chat will enter the final raffle.
2. If you already answered one question correctly, please stop answering and give a chance to
the rest. You don’t receive “extra points” for answering correctly more than once.
3. If the answer is sent before the “Answers from question n start here” message appears in the
chat, it won’t be taken into account.
